The low-volume GT Rain Cycling Gloves are ideal for all-year-round use. Made in NeoWet, this moderately thick material works by absorbing a moderate amount of moisture which then creates an insulating layer against cooler conditions. Worn alone, they regulate temperature so you're hands are neither too warm nor too cold. Extended, raw-cut cuffs give a smooth and secure fit with your rain jackets too. The palm construction is kept minimal and uninterrupted by seams for optimal comfort. You'll also enjoy excellent grip in all weathers thanks to the ultra-tacky silicone 'griffleGrip' graphic printed across the palm and fingers. A 'no wrinkle' anatomic cut, using six separate textile panels, also delivers a natural curve to the gloves boosting comfort and grip.
When temperatures are perhaps a bit too cool for your shorts and warmers combination but you don't need the heavy insulation of full winter tights, the EQUIPE RS Spring/Fall Cycling Bib Tights S9 deliver just the right level of warmth along with excellent breathability. For the seasons that transition into and out of winter, they offer the comfort you need to tick off tough training sessions with ease. Warmth and Breathability in Harmony Made from fleece-backed OSMOS Light, the lowest volume of the OSMOS textile family, the EQUIPE RS give an instant feeling of comfort against the skin. Once you're up to speed, this fleecy inner traps air to create an insulating barrier against cool temperatures. Meanwhile, the abdomen and crotch panel panels that face into the wind, and bear the brunt of the elements, feature an additional layer of OSMOS Medium. This twinDeck construction provides added insulation while remaining highly breathable. Compression. Comfort. The Spring/Fall bib tights are not only warm but they provide excellent compression and support of your muscles. The use of double-layer fabrics provides a compressive structure, firmly wrapping your large muscle groups to encourage positive circulation and uniform warmth throughout. Keeping the tights comfortably in place is Assos' A-Lock Engineering bib design, featuring rollBar braces and ergoBox construction, creating a tight that's perfectly stabilised and holding the seat insert in the correct position at all times. The Carbon Xbib also incorporates an antibacterial carbon weave, to wick moisture and lay flat in the front. At the waist and hems, a raw-cut, stitch-free finish gives a smooth and flexible fit, ensuring you enjoy the utmost comfort and a smooth transition between tights and additional layers. Assos EQUIPE RS Insert Support and comfort on the saddle are provided by the EQUIPE RS Insert. In order to boost warmth, the ventilation holes from the summer version are removed but everything else remains just the same. The pad makes use of superAir microShock foam in a 3D waffle design. The shock-absorbing SuperAir foam is lightweight and quick to return to its original form, filling gaps each time you shift weight and change position on the saddle. The waffle design meanwhile, sees the use of three-layer perforated foam to increases breathability and reduce bulk. And with goldenGate technology, the unique design allows a more natural irritation-free movement when pedalling.
Ready for Anything To the front of the Women's UMA GT Winter Jacket EVO, Assos deploy their NEOS Medium fabric, a softshell 3-layer thermal material. This provides a very effective barrier against bitterly cold winds and will shrug off rain and road spray too. While this front panel locks in warmth, a lighter-weight version of the same fabric, NEOS light, sits over the shoulders, outer arms and upper back. This is used to prevent overheating and to maintain a high level of breathability, keeping you comfortable if you ramp up the speed and intensity. Lastly, soft and fleecy RX fabric on the back and underarms provides warmth and breathability too, while also delivering an impeccable fit. This complements perfectly Assos' raglan sleeves that both works to reduce drag and allows complete freedom of movement. Practicality Built-in A long winter ride needs plenty of fuelling and so Assos give you three large capacity rear pockets, set at the perfect height and depth for easy access but still keeping the contents completely secure. The pockets are supported by Assos' S7 knit stabilisation, this single-stretch material supports the pockets vertically to prevent any sagging. For rides that finish late into the evening or start before sunrise, reflective details keep you visible on the road. Harsh winter weather won't slow you down when you pull on your UMA GT EVO Winter Cycling Jacket. Incredibly comfortable and highly protective across a wide range of conditions this is a winter-cycling tour-de-force.
Now on its third generation, the EQUIPE RS Targa Cycling Rain Jacket has had some tweaks to its design and construction to improve its all-around performance. The 3-layer Schloss Tex material is Assos' lightest waterproof fabric. This rustle-free, stretchy material sandwiches a more durable breathable membrane giving not only a boost to wet-weather comfort but also an increase in its ability to take on the general wear and tear of regular use. Other improvements see the removal of the previous iterations pocket slots, removing an area where water can seep inside. Instead, a two-way front zipper makes it easy to unzip from the bottom and free up access to your jersey pockets as well as giving easy control of ventilation. A stitchless rear reflective strip also removes an area of water ingress while keeping you visible when daylight fades. A tall collar keeps the elements off at the neck and an extended rear lower panel fends off tyre spray at the back. Fully taped seams also ensure a watertight seal. The body-hugging Assos raceFit also ensures you're not wasting precious energy in battling a loose and flappy jacket. Superlight, easily packable and weather-proof, the EQUIPE RS Targa Cycling Rain Jacket is easily layered over your race kit to keep you protected during a wet race. And in any season it slips over any cycling kit to block wind and rain while ensuring you're not drenched in sweat when you inject more intensity.
The inspiration for the RS Rain Cycling Overshoes are the aerodynamic EQUIPE RS Rapidfire Chrono Booties. Here, Assos apply the same attention to smooth, streamlined performance but with the benefit of the RS Rain being waterproof. Ultrathin 2-layer waterproof and breathable Water-Shield fabric provides protection against wet and dirty roads while maintaining excellent breathability too. Assos have also taped all seams to prevent water from seeping in. Practical features include a reverse waterproof Camlock zipper making your overshoes easy to pull on and off before and after your rides. Assos' zeroCuff is a raw-cut edge at the top, creating a smooth and streamlined finish to the booties. Meanwhile, the grippy sportGrip across the sole provides extra traction when you're off the bike and gives a boost to durability. Be it a summer rainstorm, spring showers or mild but damp winter days, the aero RS Rain Cycling Overshoes keep comfort levels high and airflow smooth. ENGINEERING - Taped Seams: Applied to all seams throughout, increasing the watertight properties of the booties. - sportGrip: This grippy monostretch textile is applied to the sole for durability and to boost traction while walking.
A spiritual successor to Assos' premium CENTO and Campionissimo shorts, the MILLE GT Cycling Long Bib Shorts GTO C2, here with a 3cm longer leg length than standard, are another leap forward in cycling comfort. With radical reshaping of the shorts' panels and reversed stitch lines, Assos have been able to remove areas of irritation while at the same time improving muscle support and tapered, wrinkle-free leg panels that adhere perfectly to your physique. Ossidia textile - Muscle-supporting Compression The primary textile used in their is construction is Assos' own Ossidia material. The warp-knit of OSSIDIA provides silky smooth compression along your lower back and thighs, helping push back fatigue and fight lactate-full muscles. Made from ultrathin, highly elastic yarns, Ossidia also fits just like a second skin, delivering incredible breathability and flexibility too. UPF 50+ also protect you from the sun. Meanwhile, the front panel uses LOSANGA. This material ensures there's less pressure around your sensitive areas, enhancing comfort on long days in the saddle. Wrapped in Comfort The GTO straps and leg panels feature Assos' rollBar and one-piece Butterfly panel construction. This offers extra stability and support. Each leag panel also features louvreTec darted construction, delivering a custom, compressive hold of your thighs. At the ends of the thighs, the raw-cut skinGrip finish, with minimal silicone grip, prevents your shorts from riding up while also exerting minimal pressure. A raw-cut waist also delivers a pressure-free and smooth fit. MILLE GTO C2 Insert Using their stitch-free goldenGate technology and reversed seams, the MILLE GTO C2 Insert is honed for long-distance cycling comfort. The front features Assos' sunDeck superlight - a successor to their iconic kukuPenthouse - made using an ultrasoft foam-free textile to form a preshaped cup that both supports the male anatomy and promotes maximum ventilation. The pad also features the twin21 System made of three separate layers. Firstly,11mm of lightweight microShock foam gives shock absorption. Next 10mm of lower-density matrix foam. This is sandwiched between the microShock and the 3D waffle outer to fully absorb micro-vibrations. The 3D waffle itself is a 3-layer perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
Building upon the performance of the standard GT Winter Overshoes, these GT Ultraz Winter Cycling Overshoes double up the protection for increased warmth in the harshest of winter cycling conditions. The primary material used is Assos' own ThermoShell 3-layer softshell. This 3-layer softshell uses a PU-bonded membrane to give excellent protection against freezing winds and damp weather. A perforated circular knit face is also deployed to enhance breathability without sacrificing thermal protection. Construction is in two overlapping layers, this twinDeck construction giving a significant boost to warmth and weather protection. And with a DWR finish applied to the outside, your feet are kept cosy through extreme weathers. Practical features include a reverse Camlock zipper making your overshoes easy to pull on before and off after your rides. Assos' zeroCuff is a raw-cut edge at the top, creating a smooth and streamlined finish to the booties. Meanwhile, the grippy sportGrip across the sole provides extra traction when you're off the bike and gives a boost to durability.
Due to their lightweight textiles and outstanding moisture control, Assos recommend their RS Superléger Cycling Socks for outdoor rides where temperatures start to rise above 30 degrees Celsius. They're also ideally suited to the hot and sweaty demands of indoor training. Thanks to InfraRed Yarns, featuring a high percentage of elastomer and blended with LYCRA®, the RS Superléger also provide a compressive fit for a boost to comfort and to promote circulation. Comfort is also enhanced via the 240-needle construction that delivers a seamless fit, removing areas of friction and irritation. A 360-degree Ribbed Arch gives extra support inside your cycling shoes too. Lastly, an elastic cuff provides a smooth transition between your socks and skin.
Taking their outstanding RS and RSR Bib Shorts S9, Assos have made changes to fabrics to maintain the fabulous comfort but deliver extra helpings of ventilation alongside a reduction in weight. For hot summer days spent tackling alpine ascents or the demands of intense indoor training sessions, they're the perfect pick. Low on weight. High on Ventilation. With fewer seams used in their construction and the use of ultralight and highly breathable materials, you'll enjoy greater comfort and fresher, cooler leg muscles when the mercury rises. The full-wrap Butterfly panel is carried over from the standard S9s but here super-light Breezer Tex is deployed. This woven fabric has a mesh-like structure, allowing for enhanced airflow inwards and outstanding breathability outwards. Other front and rear panels are made in OSSIDIA warp-knit material. This provides a firm compressive hold of your key muscle groups, and thanks to excellent abrasion resistance ensure excellent durability on the saddle. Meanwhile, the bib straps use a lighter elastic, reducing weight and minimising sweat absorption. A-Lock Engineering Assos apply the same S9 A-Lock Engineering for these Superléger shorts. This compromises a two-panel design made into a unique butterfly' panel design, snugly wrapping the legs and back to create a brand new ergoBox structure. This holds the insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and frictionless comfort no matter how intense your efforts. At the waist, raw-cut edges give a smooth transition between body and fabric, ensuring more comfort and less pressure. Raw-cut edges are also utilised at the leg openings, with minimal silicone grippers to keep your shorts in place with minimal weight and pressure. S9 SUNDECK Seat Insert An evolution of the EQUIPE RS insert, the S9 SUNDECK enjoys a reduction in weight for less bulk. Assos' whirlKrater system is also deployed. This uses strategically placed holes throughout the pad to boost airflow, creating a pad that minimises sweat absorption and boosts breathability. You'll also have the benefits of the standard RS pad. Shock-absorbing SuperAir microShock foam, in a 3D waffle design, is quick to return to its original form, filling gaps each time you shift weight and change position on the saddle. The waffle design meanwhile, sees the use of three-layer perforated foam to increases breathability and reduce bulk. And with goldenGate technology, the unique design allows a more natural irritation-free movement when pedalling.
The Women's Triator NS (No Sleeve) Cycling Speedsuit has been engineered to keep you comfortable in training and when you're taking on the challenges of Sprint and Olympic distance triathlons. Using their expertise and knowledge from the development of the road-cycling NS Summer Speedsuit, Assos ensure this tri-specific version has been adapted to the full-body motions of the three triathlon disciplines. Light and aerodynamic, this suit offers distraction-free comfort and optimal efficiency. Fabric Technology Comfort and muscle support comes by the way of proven Assos textiles from their road-racing kit. To the upper body, ultralight and stretchy Cube material has a 3D structure that creates both a streamlined finish and a material that dries exceptionally fast too. Meanwhile, the lower section is made from Type.701kompressor textile. This highly compressive material provides support of your large muscle groups, helping push back fatigue, promote blood flow and maintaining excellent flexibility when swimming, cycling and running. Fit and Feel Comfort is paramount when distances are long and endurance tested to the limit. The carefully tailored V-shaped Falken Cut design removes restrictions around the upper body, offering flexibility and comfort across all three tri disciplines. Raw cut ends to the legs, with silicone internal dot grippers, also give a remarkably smooth and aero finish while a 3/4 zipper keeps you in control of temperature regulation. A modified 2-panel ergoBox design with frictionless Butterfly Pattern make up the lower half, built around the streamlined Triator Insert. Women's Traitor Insert A triathlon-specific insert, the Women's Triator pad uses 4mm and 6mm memory foam, striking a perfect balance between support and low-volume flexibility. 3D waffle, 3-layer perforated foam removes bulk and increases breathability. Assos' goldenGate also features. This patented technology allows for a more natural, 3-dimensional movement of the pad, enhancing comfort and eliminating irritation.
Setting the Pace for Comfort This isn't a jacket for taking it easy in. Rather, the aerodynamically efficient Women's DYORA RS Winter Cycling Jacket excels the harder you press on the pedals and the more watts you push out. Created for the pro-athlete and demanding year-round rider, Assos have carefully and precisely engineered every textile to be 'activated' with effort. It creates a winter-proof jacket with the very best balance of insulation and exceptional breathability, perfectly regulating body temperature during your long training rides and races. Engineered Excellence Its exceptional performance is made possible by its unique construction, material mix and a new breed of remarkably light softshell fabrics called SPHERE. This replaces Assos' long-running Stratagon and offers membrane-equipped materials of variable thicknesses to tune waterproofing and flexibility perfectly for cycling hard. The inner front panel is made of several ultrathin layers of SPHERE. It's akin to a mid-layer chest protector and is brilliant at wicking moisture away to the outer layers. Then comes 3-layer wind- and waterproof SPHERE Light to the outside. Brushed on the inside it provides both warmth and weather protection. A thicker and more insulating version of the same 3-layer material is used across the upper back and forearms, boosting warmth. To boost climate control, Assos have deployed their Diffusor “valves” at the shoulders, allowing air inside to prevent overheating. Moving to the back, OSMOS Heavy is the most insulating of Assos' brushed-backed materials. And the jacket’s built-in mid-layer is made with lighter, more breathable OSMOS Light while the upper arms are wrapped in windproof warp-knit 3L ZigZaggy Foam. Assos Layering System The Women's Dyora RS Winter Jacket forms part of a cycling layering system, engineered to work beautifully together. For most winter conditions it works perfectly as a stand-alone winter jacket. However, for extremely harsh conditions use it with an Assos Thermobooster Mid Layer for added insulation. For extra coverage in humid or extra-demanding weather, deploy your Clima Capsule Jacket over the top. Assos have thought of everything.
The softshell NEOS Medium material ensures the GT Winter Cycling Overshoes prevent your feet from suffering from the bite of colder winter temperatures. It's the same material as used for Assos' winterproof jackets so has been comprehensively tested and proven to keep off cold winds and to repel damp, drizzly conditions. This 3-layer softshell, with PU bonded membrane, also breathes well, keeping your feet comfortable during all levels of intensity during your ride. Practical features include a reverse Camlock zipper making your overshoes easy to pull on before and off after your rides. Assos' zeroCuff is a raw-cut edge at the top, creating a smooth and streamlined finish to the booties. Meanwhile, the grippy sportGrip across the sole provides extra traction when you're off the bike and gives a boost to durability.
